Research on Turbine Volute design using CFX
Abstract: Volute is centrifugal part or basically it is a casing of turbine, centrifugal pump and turbo chargers. It is the most important component of turbine which converts velocity into pressure by the help of blades. It has a funnel type shape, with increasing diameter with curved shape. It receives fluid from the impeller and maintaining its velocity to the diffuser. While converting the fluids velocity into kinetic energy there are …

Research on Turbine Volute by Varying Different Mass Flow Rate using CFX
Abstract: The volute is a necessary component in the centrifugal machines. Low efficiency is the fundamental disadvantage of a radial flow turbine, no matter the turbine being an essential low-cost technology for hydropower generation. Poor flow profile has been mentioned by way of different radial flow turbine overall performance investigators as one of the reasons for the underperformance. Improving its overall performance is a tremendous way to enhance the total performance …
